Testing, one two three! Hungarian-Canadian @kriszt

Testing, one two three!
Hungarian-Canadian @krisztinaszabomezzo, and collaborative pianist and Songbook creator, Chris Foley, star in Tapestry’s first-ever livestream concert. With Tapestry Opera’s General Director, @michaelhmori, they have created a program comprised of Tapestry favourites and well-loved operatic and art song selections. Enjoy the works of Strauss and Schubert, Cusson, Barbotin and more like you’ve never heard them before - on our Bosendorfer Imperial Grand Piano, one of only a handful in Canada.
Tune in live on our Youtube page at 8pm tomorrow night - instructions and link to come!

We are thrilled to announce Songbook X: Krisztina

We are thrilled to announce Songbook X: Krisztina Szabó and Chris Foley in Livestream Concert - hosted by Michael Mori, streaming live on our Youtube channel on Saturday, March 21st at 8:00PM.
To protect our participants, artists and audiences from the dangers of COVID-19, we made the difficult decision to cancel activities including our emerging artists’ showcase, Songbook X and New Opera 101 masterclass.
Headliners @krisztinaszabomezzo and Chris Foley, collaborative pianist, have agreed to change tack and perform a full recital featuring Tapestry selections and other select opera and art song. The performance will be free for all to watch, no matter where in the world.
In the face of great challenges, we can be both cautious and not beaten. Until we can meet again in person, we wish you safety, health, and peace... AND we look forward to sharing two extraordinary artists with you on Saturday, online!

A notice regarding upcoming cancellations, streami

A notice regarding upcoming cancellations, streaming alternatives, and a commitment to artists’ fees:
In light of recent developments concerning COVID-19, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our upcoming public performance of Songbook X, as well as the preceding three-day emerging artist masterclass, New Opera 101.
While we are heartbroken to cancel, we must prioritize the safety of our artists and audiences. We will be honouring the artists’ fees, and will refund the masterclass participants’ tuition. Holders of single tickets for Songbook X will be contacted in due course and offered full refunds.
In times of great challenge, the world needs art more than ever. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that in place of public performances, we will be live-streaming a special virtual concert featuring Songbook X headliners Krisztina Szabó, mezzo-soprano, and Christopher Foley, pianist, on Saturday, March 21 at 8pm on our Youtube channel, @TapestryNewOpera. The concert will feature Szabó and Foley presenting a selection of best-loved Tapestry works and other favourites, and will be free for all to watch.
At this time, Rocking Horse Winner will proceed as planned from April 23 to May 2. Should COVID-19 continue to escalate and live performances be cancelled, we publically commit to paying artists their agreed-upon fees. Many artists live paycheque to paycheque. In this destabilizing time of cancellations, Tapestry is committed to doing whatever we can to support our community of opera professionals.
We thank everyone for their understanding, and wish everyone health and peace in this trying time. We look forward to seeing you in calmer days - until then, don’t forget to tune in on Saturday!

At the heart of the story behind #TOJacqueline, th

At the heart of the story behind #TOJacqueline, the world premiere new opera by Luna Pearl Woolf and Royce Vavrek, is a special relationship between a thirteen year old cello prodigy and a fading star.
Take a peek behind the scenes of Jacqueline, written specifically for and performed by American soprano Marnie Breckenridge, and cellist Matt Haimovitz - the final protégé of Jacqueline du Pré.
Together, they play the role of du Pré and her cello, her only constant companion.
Jacqueline explores the powerful legacy of the late virtuoso: the fiercely talented teenage cellist who defied all odds to become the best in the world, only to face a terrifying fight with a mysterious illness at the height of her fame.
